Medscape (1/20) reports that new research suggests that middle-aged women may be at a greater risk of developing eating disorders (EDs) around the time of menopause. Investigators at the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill conducted “a comprehensive search of articles published in PubMed on midlife EDs, as well as the hormonal etiology of EDs and other psychiatric disorders, including depression.” The findings were published online in Maturitas.
